Aloha! First and foremost, I have to say that I am a pretty fortunate guy to have the family and friends in my life that give me the chance to live the life that I live. Raised in a small town just south of Richmond, Virginia, I packed my bags six years ago, followed my dreams to Hawaii and never looked back. I ll soon be a graduate of the University of Hawai'i @ Manoa and then relocating to Los Angeles, California. I work at a Surf Club across the street from Waikiki Beach and I live just blocks from my favorite surf spot; Cliffs at Diamond Head Beach. If I could surf 3-4 ft Hawaiian style (for you mainland folks, that means 5-8 ft faces) glassy rights everyday, I would be really happy. I love watching VA Tech football but I gotta represent it for the UH Warriors. I try to live a very healthy and active lifestyle, so I can usually be found in the gym 3-4 times a week or in the lineup between Black Point and Kewalo Basin. I prefer organic and natural foods to fast or processed food; but I have hard time turning down a Magnum PI Burger. I do not believe that the color orange is the root of all evil. Living in Hawaii for so many years, I have had the chance to meet a solid core group of people from around the world, have had so many close calls, awesome memories and great experiences that I will take with me wherever I go.
